Pets offer numerous benefits for mental and emotional well-being, including reducing stress and anxiety, easing loneliness, and boosting self-esteem, all while providing companionship and a sense of purpose. Tell me about your pets! I have 3 cats, all with completely different personalities. One is always on me, another is jealous when the one is on me, & the other wants nothing to do with me!! Lol
